Capcom Explains No Point-Earning Photos in Dead Rising Remake
Aug 13, 2024 3:00 PMCapcom has confirmed the removal of the erotica point-earning feature from the Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster, as part of a broader update concerning the game's content. The development team clarified that this decision was not influenced by changing cultural norms but stemmed from a desire to avoid inappropriate rewards related to the survival theme. While the controversial erotica photo category has been eliminated, players will still have the freedom to choose their photo subjects, without a point system incentivizing the capture of erotic images. The core gameplay of photography remains, with categories like brutality, drama, and horror still present. Fans await the remaster’s launch on September 19, 2024, on various platforms, including PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.
Why was the erotica photo category removed from the Dead Rising Deluxe Remaster?The erotica photo category was removed because Capcom decided it was not an appropriate reward for the survival aspects of the game and didn't reflect the necessary skills of a photojournalist trying to survive a zombie apocalypse.
nDead Rising originally released in 2006, features Frank West, a photojournalist stuck in a zombie-infested mall. The unique blend of survival horror and humor garnered a loyal fanbase. The remaster aims to refine and modernize the experience while maintaining the charm of the original title, making it more accessible for new players while still appealing to veterans of the series.

I think it's refreshing to see developers rethink certain features to better align with the game's core themes, even if it stirs up some controversy. Dead Rising has always been about that quirky take on survival, and focusing on more relevant aspects like brutality and drama might just enhance the overall experience for both new and returning players

It's interesting to see Capcom take a step back and re-evaluate certain gameplay elements in the remaster of Dead Rising, especially when it comes to aligning the rewards with the game's survival theme. This shift shows they're still committed to keeping the essence of the original while making it relevant and sensible for today’s audience—definitely looking forward to seeing how the revamped experience plays out

It's interesting to see Capcom taking a stand on the content of Dead Rising, showing they're committed to aligning gameplay mechanics with the overall themes of the game. While the absence of the erotica point category may ruffle some feathers, it seems like a smart move to keep the focus on the survival experience that fans love.
